On today's part of my take,
we have the long-awaited Max Verstappen
and Sergio Perez-Cecho interview.
So much fun.
Guys were, it was the most relaxed,
I've seen Max Verstappen publicly.
And it was a lot of fun to talk to them.
You talked about the Netflix show,
which I wasn't expecting.
Yeah, talked about the Netflix show,
growing relationship there,
so hopefully we'll have them back on.
We also have an incredible Mount Rushmore,
Mount Rushmore of America,
open-ended with our good friend and Marine, Kate.
Hank just gave me a look.
He's a look king right now.
You know what, he's a look king.
Hank is serving looks right now.
I'm trying to, I'm confused.
He's just throwing looks at everyone.
Hank, all the flavors and you choose to be this extra.
Hey, guess what?
Guess what, Hank?
I can fix it for you.
I can fix it for you right now.
All these looks, why don't you save some money
with your wireless carrier,
and you can use that money to get some sunglasses,
which we have a sunglass promotion later,
and then you can wear sunglasses like PFT
and then we don't have to see your stupid looks all the time.
I'm just trying to make sure that you're...
You want mine?
I'm trying to make sure you're visible, yeah.
You can wear mine this episode.
Here, we have a bunch right here.
Here, take a bunch.
Most visible podcaster in your house.
Yeah, most visible podcaster.
You, because I can see you.

Speaking of singles,
what is the single best part of summer, Jake?
Playing golf.
That's the best part.
Okay, playing golf.

Today is Wednesday, June 29th.
And I'd like to begin with a quote.
Normal people keep the world going,
but those who dare to be different
lead us into tomorrow.
You son of a bitch.
That's what I was going to say.
I've made my decision to opt in.
See you in the fall, A-Eleven, Evan.
All, all even.
All, all even.
All even.
From Kyrie Irving.
A-Eleven.
A-Eleven.
We've got to get a clarification.
It's so entitled from Stranger Things.
Yeah.
A-Eleven, Evan.
From Kyrie Irving, who has opted in
to his $37 million player option,
ending the dumbest two days on NBA Twitter
in getting ready for a free agency.
He is staying in Brooklyn as of right now.
He could still be traded.
But as of right now, he's staying in Brooklyn.
He also had quite a day on Twitter where
the Barstow main account tweeted
Kyrie Irving destroying every NBA team
he's ever been a part of.
And it was a video of the Joker walking away
from the hospital as he blows it up.
And Kyrie Irving corrected him and said
NBA champion and gold medalist Kyrie Irving
just thought the statement needed a correction
as you all continue to make money off my name
and countless others.
Notice he did not correct the fact
that he has destroyed every NBA team
he's ever been a part of.
So he wanted a clarification on what he's accomplished
but not a clarification.
You'd think if someone said that about you,
you'd be like, clarification,
I haven't blown up every team I've been a part of.
But he, I think, knows that he has
and is just clarifying that it's NBA champion
and gold medalist Kyrie Irving
back on the Brooklyn Nets.
Champions, the big three back together again.
Kyrie Irving, Ben Simmons, and Kevin Durant.
You can read all of Kyrie's tweets
with the voice of Morpheus from The Matrix, though.
They actually make more sense if you think
that it's Morpheus saying them.
He's got a very specific type of philosophy
that could be equally at home
in a fan fiction rewrite of a fantasy film
or a gap commercial that co-ops a famous poet.
It's essentially Kyrie Irving,
and we don't know him personally,
but just judging from afar,
he's your friend that decided to read
On the Road one summer
or listens to too much Joe Rogan podcast
and is like, I have some thoughts about a lot of things.
And it's like, really? Okay. Go ahead, drop it on us.
But I love Kyrie. That's the thing.
I actually am on Team Kyrie for most things
because he's an agent of chaos.
I love that in the NBA.
He's also just like, he's exceptionally good
when he's playing well and when he's healthy.
He's one of the best players in the league
and he's fun to watch.
But it's just like, I like some guy
that could walk into a room
and you just know that by the time he's done talking,
everyone's gonna be like, what the fuck did that guy say?
And he just creates, he creates conversation,
which I love.
And I remember when he went back to Boston Garden
and he was waving the smoke around, the sage,
he was burning sage.
He's such a weirdo and I love that about him.
Well, I think we like it from afar
because we don't have to be his teammates.
I would guarantee his teammates don't love this.
I don't know, but he gets so much respect from other players.
I think his teammates do like it.
They always say he's the best one-on-one player.
I want to play with Kyrie.
Playing skill.
Yeah, no, no.
I think that's his playing skill.
I don't think his teammates enjoyed the last season
with all the sitting out and everything.
That could not have been fun.
I mean, they probably didn't enjoy the fact
that he wasn't on the court, but-
Correct.
I feel like all of his teammates that have ever talked about
and publicly have said how much they love him.
They go out of their way to compliment-
They love playing with him, yeah.
But the problem is he hasn't been playing that much.
And now, I don't know where the net,
because it felt like we were right around
the nets being one of the funniest.
It was essentially going to be
the Steve Nash-Dwight Howard Lakers Sports Illustrated cover,
where the nets were going to be like super team nets.
For a minute there was James Harden,
Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Durant.
And then we could have been two years of them playing together
into just blowing the whole thing up.
Because if Kyrie had opted out or demanded a trade,
and then Kevin Durant demanded a trade,
the nets would have been left with nothing.
I mean, it would have been him turning down, what, 36 million
to sign for, you know, probably what,
six or $7 million somewhere else.
If you wanted to go to a contender, yeah.
I would have respected the hell out of that.
I would have too, and if there's any NBA player,
any superstar that's like crazy enough to do it,
it's probably Kyrie.
I would believe other stuff he says if he did that.
But with the crypto market turning down recently,
I feel like Kyrie probably took a bath on that.
His board apes are worthless right now.
All his apes gone.
My new salary is actually, I get three apes in episode now.
Yes, yes.
I converted completely to crypto.
It's just, I don't know.
He's just constantly doing stuff.
The nets definitely don't like Kyrie anymore.
The front office and the owner, they're just like,
what the fuck?
That's the part where I would agree with you.
The front office, the sitting out stuff,
that's something that if you're the coach or if you're the GM,
you're like, I fucking hate this guy, but he's so good.
But I feel like the players that play with him,
they really enjoy him.
Play with him.
I think they like him as a person too.
They play with him.
Yes.
When they have to answer questions about why he's not playing,
probably not.
Right.
It's like when we get asked questions about how come there's
someone missing from the show today.
Right.
It's like enough already.
He's been sussied.
As a person.
Yeah.
As his boss, I want to light him on fire.
Yeah.
What if it was just he just didn't get vaccinated?
That's actually the real reason he's been sussied.
That's actually the truth.
We did have to make him.
He unvaccinated himself.
He unvaccinated himself.
He sucked it out like a sound away.
He found a snake to suck it out.
But yeah, Kyrie Irving.
But like at the end of the day, the nets for all the circus
are surrounding them.
This team still could contend for a title if everyone's healthy
and playing.
And that's including Ben Simmons who who the fuck knows like the
fact that Ben Simmons and Kyrie are on the same team is just
so great.
It's great for Ben Simmons.
Yeah.
Because he's like he's not the center of attention all the time.
And this is the only team in the league that I think he could
be on.
Maybe the Lakers where there would be somebody else that would
deflect that away nicely.
Yes.
And then we had John Wall.
John Wall moving to the Clippers.
Clippers is going to be a problem.
So Clippers are an issue right now.
Official problem.
They are a problem.
Playoff P is back this season.
Is John Wall him?
He's him.
Kawhi is him.
Kawhi is him.
They got three like they got three hymns.
They have three hymns.
Kawhi just he like plays every other year.
He's like the Giants when they used to win the World Series
on even years.
That's what Kawhi does.
He just like if he gets if he gets dinged up he'll just not
play for 12 months.
But if he's held back and be dominant.
But if everyone does their top five and they forget Kawhi and
then he comes back and plays one insane year and they're like
Kawhi best player in the league.
And then he's just gone.
But I'm just.
Celtics Clippers.
I'm rooting for John Wall.
Celtics Clippers.
This is the part of the NBA season though that like it's too much
because they do they stack the draft and then free agency on
Thursday right after the finals.
And it's like I need a break.
I'm also this goes back to me being confused all the time about
NBA contracts.
So the Houston Rockets are paying John Wall $40 million to
not play for them this year.
Correct.
Did I get that straight.
Correct.
And then last year they played they paid him $47 million to
also not pay.
Correct.
Correct.
So he's then going to go two years in a row not playing for
the Houston Rockets.
Correct.
And they will have paid him $87 million.
But think about the cap space they're going to have coming up.
You can't put a price on that.
It's all about the new cap space.
The Knicks are trying to get Knicks are continuously trying to
get cap space.
Can we just then get some some awesome superstar be like now I
don't want to play for you.
I mean if this was any other industry like I feel like the
feds would be investigating them for money laundering.
Yeah.
It doesn't get why like sunk cost.
It's sunk cost sunk cost.
It's hard to stay motivated.
What is that a personal.
No when you're getting no if I was getting paid $40 million and
I could be like yeah I don't you know if you guys like I don't
want you to podcast.
Oh yeah.
We're still going to pay you $40 million.
Yes.
You want to win.
But like.
Right.
Yeah.
But it takes a little bit out of your sales.
You want to win when you're when you're in college in your
high school and you're broke and then you get paid $100 million
for playing 20 games in three years.
Yeah.
What you're saying right now Hank is John Wall and Kyrie might
not have that dog.
No.
They might not have that dog.
I feel like John Wall is still dogged up though.
I don't know.
I do too.
I do too.
You surprise me.
Yeah.
But Kyrie I think you can say like he might have a dog but
it's like you know maybe like a lab that that is just like maybe
an older lab.
Well I mean the fact that he's hanging on Olympics pretty much
tells you all you need to know.
Especially when Mello has three gold medals.
Get out of here and a bronze no big deal.
Wait what's happened to the United States since Kyrie won a gold
medal.
Wait.
Go downhill.
Was it he won 2016 gold medal I think.
Yes.
It is it is like life was so much cooler. That's what you're flexing about then you're you're pretty much saying you don't have
That was the best summer of your life. Yeah, 2016 after Kyrie happened. He Prince. He destroyed that team too. Yeah, 11 not bad
Yeah, but it was a Mount Rushmore summers of summers 69 summers
Just at any summer any summer just pick it
Yeah, I don't hate that the um summer 98 2003 was home run race 2004 was better. Actually. Yeah, there's some good summer
Yeah, this summer is gonna be brazy
It's gonna be what it's gonna be brazy
What is brazy? I need to learn that word the other day and I was like, what is that?
What did you just say? What's okay? It's crazy and what if you're a blood? Oh, you can't say see. Oh, okay?
That's okay. So that really doesn't work for me. No
I might have just made that up. I don't know if that's true. Oh
Well, let's have a brazy summer. Why not fuck it. Let's get it. Let's just the summer
I guess I'm not I guess I just showed my allegiance. All right. That's true
So yeah, Kyrie John Wall probably not
Mini dogs. I think John Wall's got a dog. He's got a dog. He's been hurt. He's got a dog
It's like a it's a it's a well-trained family pit bull that lives inside John
And he's had kennel cough for a while. I think he's like relatively healthy. He's getting over it
He's getting over it. He's he's had all the shots against Parvo and he's ready to go
But he's like he's a snuggly dog. He's a snuggly pit bull. I feel like
Kyrie Irving. Yeah, he's an older. He's like the dog's not in him anymore. The dog's like on his lap
There's a dog, but there's a dog somewhere in there
But like every now and then you can throw a tennis ball around and then the dog will sleep for 18 hours
Yeah, that type of dog the dog slowly going blind. Yes. Yes, exactly
But it can still you know, like if you open the fridge the dog will show up
Oh, it still knows what the can opener sounds like. Yes. Yes. All right other news
So we have the NBA free agency coming. I feel like this is not a
Big free agency because there's not like one huge huge name, but I'm sure we'll have
Some news coming on Thursday. Do we know over the weekend?
Do we know what's gonna happen with James Harden? Is that completely decided? He's got an opt-in too
I think so he's gonna opt back in and fill it
But he's also found like Dale Maury is the one guy who will just pay James Harden whatever because he loves him so much
He is the Christian Horner to Max Verstappen analogy because this is an F1 podcast
The other news is looks like the Browns have just made the worst decision of all time
Yeah, so we're first reporting on part of my take that to Sean Watson will be suspended for an indefinite year
Yep on Friday. Yeah, so we just know Roger could tell that much that that's what's gonna happen
There's been some leaks that have like it basically I love how the NFL operates
They've told enough people that this is what it's gonna be as a trial balloon
Yeah, like hey
What would you guys think if we suspended him for a year and now all the stories are like wow the Browns are really fucking stupid
Cuz Jacobi Bressette might have to be their starting quarterback for a year
and so they're sent out those trial balloons and
People seem to be okay with it
So it will probably be an indefinite
Suspension for at least a year and then maybe some more of next year
So my guess is it will be a suspension for a year and then the appeal is gonna come through because it gets
You know, they have the right to appeal that suspension and then Goodell is gonna be like okay
I'll like reduce it to 14 games or 12 games or something like that. That's what I think it's gonna happen
although sometimes what they'll do is they'll do the conversation before where
They will decide the length
Knowing that he's not gonna appeal like they'll come to an agreement, but it's not Sean Watson being like alright
You suspend me for a year. We won't appeal. Just take away the indefinite
But Goodell is he is not deciding the initial suspension, right?
It's an independent person that's doing that and then good totally independent, but then Goodell just hears the appeal
Yeah, there's the totally independent. Yeah, good. I would never do with it. He would never interfere with no back channels going on
so I feel like I
Feel like yeah, the Browns really fucked up by paying him and if you look at the most recent thing that came out
I think it was in the Times yesterday about
They're suing you know the Times. Oh, New York Times the great lady got it. Got a paper of record got it
They're suing the Houston Texans
Because the Texans allegedly provided to Sean Watson with with hotel rooms
After the team masseuse was like hey
This is kind of weird that the Sean keeps using all these independent massage
Therapists that he finds on Instagram right so like they sounded the alarm to the Texans
And Texas were like yeah, we'll just keep getting him his hotel rooms and oh one of them is like complaining about him
Tell you what you can also use our NDA that we have ready for you to Sean
Yeah, just sitting over here
So it looks like the Texans are probably liable in all this too to a certain degree the Browns and Texans should just have to
Play like a seven-game series. That's it in July to decide what happened just to entertain us. Yes
Yes, purely
Davis Mills doesn't deserve this Davis Mills is the future, but yeah, this is so Browns like I you know
That one day of happiness where it's like hey, we got to show them Watson
It actually kind of cheap, you know, what are we paying them $1 next year or something?
You know what I did one million I think so I I put a future on the Browns the day before they got to Sean not because of
DeSean, but for a friend Jeff D Lowe's birthday. I put a significant future. I got him at I want to say it was like plus
3000 and
Then the news happened and the odds shot down to plus 1500. I made a tough decision
Last week I cast out of that future because I wouldn't feel right. That's good. That's big
I'm not gonna draft to Sean Watson on any of my fantasy teams. Are you heard of here first?
DeSean Watson is suspended from part of my take. Mm-hmm. Yep heard of here pinning appeal and I won't draft him for this year
Yep next year totally different if he's on waivers though, like if he doesn't get drafted suspended
Yeah, and then I'm up and stash them you just in case he comes back for like week 16
Yep champ Super Bowl, but he's off my big board. Yeah. Yeah. No, I won't even look at him
Mm-hmm
Someone's gonna that that will be the great the guy in your fantasy league that does the auto draft who misses the draft and he
Gets to Sean Watson in the second round. Mm-hmm. I want to see if there's anybody out there
Here's where the rubber meets the road if you've got a keeper league and you've got to Sean Watson
As like your franchise guy gotta cut him you gotta cut him gotta cut him if you stand for anything you gotta cut him
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Um, I also we're getting into that time zone right now where it's about to be July and we're gonna have
people
Tweeting us being like man. I already did my draft and this guy got hurt
Just just a reminder. Don't do your fantasy draft until the last week of August
Yeah, even even maybe the even maybe the Tuesday before the Thursday kickoff
That's usually when I like that Monday or that Tuesday the freaks out there that draft their fantasy team in July
And then they're shocked when like half their roster is gone before the season starts stop doing that
Yeah, stop do I bet you there's someone right now who has already done their fantasy draft and they have the Sean Watson
And they're gonna be like oh now he's spent it for a year. Mm-hmm. Fuck this sucks
No, you shouldn't do it that early and I heard that Hanks can be naming fantasy teams if you tweet at him
Yeah, fuck no that is absolutely not. Yeah, is that just a rumor? I heard yeah as a nasty rumor someone spreading
Tweet at you and then yeah, you'll do draft order in and
Yeah, you got this
Quick do our do our fantasy teams
No, I like doing sunglasses. You're a lot less early. Yeah, you look way chiller. Yeah, is this what I look like every show like stoned
Silver foxes. Oh nice. Okay. That's for Jake
Short Kings. Oh
Was that for was that for big cat? Yeah, it's a funny thing like big
Yeah, mm-hmm. Okay. Hey more about Jake best in the office

No, this is crazy. Yeah, you think of cruises, you know, yeah on the sea. Yeah in a boat
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw it and I don't know if this is just like an internet thing
Like there's no way that they're although there has to be I think there's real people that sit in an office and actually have
Come up with these plans designs. They put out the pictures of a plane cruise. Yeah
It's like a massive massive massive
Bigger than you know, whatever a name like for aircraft
I guess what's what do you call the big aircraft carriers in the sky?
Seven cargo planes. Yeah. Yeah
But that's that's on the gunship or yeah, it's like ten of those triple seven. Okay. It's like so whatever
See at a seven see at a seven quadruple seven. Yeah, so it's a quadruple seven nuclear-powered
Air cruise that I don't it makes I don't really understand how this works
It also like why would I want to just be on a plane for?
Yeah, so hours and hours and hours because they have you know
They have the indoor water park and they have all the stuff. Yeah
where it's like why would you want to be on a boat for so long because
You're chilling at all these cool little places on the plane and then you land in a cool place
No, it's cap. It's certified cap. If you look at all the engines leave
If you look at all the engines on that plane, you know how much that fucking thing weighs I
Don't think I don't think it's possible speaking from an aviation standpoint
I don't think that it's possible even like a lot of it's stupid with a thrust to weight ratio
You'd have to have like 40 engines to get that thing off the ground
Isn't this just a video like doesn't business insider just make these videos to like keep the lights on in between hit pieces about us
Pretty much all they do well sometimes out this new car that is never gonna be driven
But wouldn't it be cool? They'll also do like 40 satisfying things and it'll just be like somebody playing with Play-Doh
Yeah, or like you'd never guess where this cheese is made 20 electric in a mall in city makes all the cheese in the world
20 electric engines 20 electric engines powered by a thousand guests powered by a nuclear fusion. Mmm. I
I'm just gonna say this if this is real I will absolutely laugh when it crashes and everyone dies
I'm just gonna say it like this is not there's some things that you're just not supposed to do
This is one of them
So if anyone goes on this cruise and they crash and die, I will not be sad for one second
I mean, it's a million percent gonna crash. Yes, like everyone's gonna die because there's no way to test fly this until you actually
Make the real thing right you're not gonna. There's a movie theater in it. No, it's
Listen, you're getting taken for a ride. Yeah, you are I would love to get taken for a guy
I want you all right. I'll sign you up for the first trip
I will pay whatever amount of money it takes to get you on that first flight
Yeah, all I'm saying is a parachute. I'm in a hotel in the sky. They better give me a parachute
Yeah, just in case I have to jump out. Uh-huh, but it flies really high
I think and who's gonna pilot it. There's no man on earth that can fly that plane you. Yeah, good point, Jake
Yeah, sully you all of you
So we can fly that place. All right, you're cool. Throw my cool throw is nuts specifically not a butter. Mmm. Okay
I don't know if you guys saw this yesterday, but the latest, you know
Sometimes corporate accounts get cute. Sometimes they're really cringy. Sometimes they're a little over the top
This is one of the most over-the-top ones. I've seen lately
Not a butter just a not a butter account at not a butter
shout out for the free ad
Tweeted n is for the way you nut at me. Oh
Okay, I don't get it
Me neither. It's just like it's just trying getting horny. It's just extremely horny tweet from a brand

Radio Shack they tweeted yesterday. Hey at Miley Cyrus you up. Oh Jesus. You're running that account. I'll chase me competition
Yeah, whatever. I'm so over Miley
Yeah, so over you just brought her up. No, I'm so I haven't even thought about her in like years. Yeah
Okay, oh, that's your hot seat cool throne. Good job, Hank
Pft. Look at this. Look at this. It's the BP Mexico
They did a pride post. Was it just like gas oil oil, but like in rainbow. I don't know. I'm gonna translate
I'm gonna translate it. Let's see translate tweet. It says
Gas is gay
No, I know it's taking forever because our internet sucks
Radio Shack also tweeted out a bunch of Radio Shack logos
Staring at the Wendy's logo on the couch
So it's the meme where it's like the five of them standing around the little girl on the couch kind of creepy
Yeah, that is kind of kind of creepy radio Shack. Um, they're getting ready to bang out Wendy's
Hey, do you think you get the Wi-Fi fixed in this fucking place? No, I mean, this is crazy
I can't even be on the internet. Can't do it Milton. Can't do it here
Maybe Chicago Pete. What a fuck. All right, go ahead Pft
My hot seat is integrity
And maybe we can do this as a group because I just did see the text that came through
I think Jake was planning on discussing this and Hank sent it out as well
There there was a Colorado avalanche beat writer
That picked up the Stanley Cup. Oh, no
celebrated with the team and called it one of the best nights of his life and
frankly
He should be executed. Yeah
Send him to the live tour. They should they should chop his head off
Like that's not you know what what journalism is supposed to be in America. It's supposed to be fearless truth-tellers
Mm-hmm
Impartial scribes that that pay attention to the warts and all and can be counted on to tell the truth and speak truth to power
In this case this man celebrated the Stanley Cup. That's bullshit. I think all taken away
I think that Jake. What do you think? What's the right punishment?
Some people are saying he should be fired some people are saying actually I mean that's what the tweets are
I did a blog on it any blue check mark saying you should be fired some a blue check mark said, uh, what's his name?
the guy a Marriottie no
the guy who got in trouble is
I'm blanking on it Mike Chambers of the Denver post Denver post don't say that name around me anymore and
A blue check mark Jeff Perlman quotes. We did. Oh, we've had him on the show. Yeah. Oh, really?
Book before my time probably. Yeah, maybe he gets angry a lot online. Yeah, he has he's a big time
And I like his books. I've read his books
He's very talented author, but he has a lot of like gonna have to log off for the rest of the afternoon
Dear, you know, you're just sitting in your backyard right now checking Twitter dear journalists
What not to do ever? Oh, he hit him with a dear journalist. Yeah, damn. That's tough
Yeah, respect
With the team ones, but I think it's different when you're a member of the traveling party. Oh, don't
Know it's different. Why you're part of the traveling party. He's not part of the team exactly that's difference
So if you're part of the traveling party, you still should not celebrate. That's not sure you shouldn't show any joy at all
No, he wasn't you were broadcasting not right analyzing. Yeah
I don't really care, but I think it's funny how mad people get I mean
There's there's somewhere in the in the middle here where it is a little weird because it's like it's awesome
I like but I also just don't care
Did the owner be like come party with us or did he just walk in the party right like that's a big factor
I think if you I mean, I guess I have no journalistic integrity
But if I was covering one specific team like you want them to do well
Yeah, the more the better they do the more clicks you get and you develop relationships with the players for story lines
But then again if they go
21 and 58 or whatever
It's he gonna stay in like he the reason
It's the best day at best. What do you say best season of my life bet day in my life
The most memorable experience of my career
So but yeah, like when you're when you're a beat reporter you want the team you're covering to win a Stanley Cup correct
It makes so he could have been talking about the overall. Yeah experience
I'm sure he got a lot more buzz a lot more clicks and stuff during this playoff run
He's gonna be persona non grata when it comes back to that when he gets back to the
Press box. Oh, yeah, there's you get one. Oh, man all next season and it's let's just be let's just completely strip away
All of like the you know people getting on their high horses here
99% of the anger is going to be
Jealousy course like you know that he was able to do that and party with the team and they weren't because of some fucking class
They took at Syracuse
Not to name names
Can you imagine being in sports media and your favorite team wins a Stanley Cup and then you get to hang out with the Stanley Cup?
Could you even put yourself in that position? I would say no. Yeah, I would like what you wouldn't be allowed because you don't have pants
I would say I would say no. Yeah, I'd excuse myself in the entire more important things. You can't cover it
You can't be an objective
Coverage of the team anymore. Yeah, like for example
If I had partied with like the Capitals after they won then once like Ovi was doing his old Putin thing
Then I would probably speak up about that
No, I but if I if I was like good friends with him
Then I probably wouldn't say anything right if I was like too close to him
Then I'd probably just sweep it all under the rug and pretend your silence that he's not
Best friends of Putin. Yeah, so thankfully I didn't do that. All right. You're cool throne. Oh, yeah, my cool throne
My cool throne is neon. I saw I saw a picture come out the Barbie movies coming out
Soon. Oh, yeah, it's got what Ryan Gosling and
Margot Robbie in it. Mm-hmm. I feel like this summer neon is back
The 80s are coming back like for real
It's gonna be brazy. Yeah, it's gonna be great. It's gonna be it. You know what I feel like
Brazy summer is the official colors are just neon. I I do think that this is the summer where everyone's like, man
What I only call COVID is over like we're gonna keep doing this
I think every summer is big. This would be the craziest summer ever for the next 10 years. Yeah
Man, we can finally do it this summer and fans are back in sports fans are back
We're gonna do neon now the neon breeze the neon look. It's been enough time where you can look at it
Cuz your truck is neon
Well, no, my truck is rainbow because you got a house in the Jersey Shore
What's that? And because you got a house in the Jersey Shore listen is rainbow is Jersey Shore
Is that like a big neon place because it wasn't last year's yeah, I guess is rainbow
Neon looks good if you have a tan it just does it doesn't matter what type of neon it looks good when you have a tan
I think I think that's my goal last summer was like novelty during summer for me
I think this year. It's seafood towers, which by the way are fantastic
Seafood towers and neon there we go. That's crazy and brazy. Well, neon is
Definition brazy brazy aesthetic. Yeah. Um, all right. My hot seat is
Bank and Liam are just ready to get the fuck out of here. My hot seat is the ACC coastal division
So the ACC has decided that starting next year
They are combining both divisions and it will just be the top two teams going forward
Very very sad day for all next year 2023
So they're gonna that you have three teams that you play every year and then it's a rotating schedule off that
But we lose the ACC coastal division and it's very sad day because
They I think they were doing this just because the ACC coastal finally got hot
Uh, they had not won an ACC championship in the last decade
They finally do with pit and then they shut the whole thing down. Yeah bullshit. Yeah, it's absolute bullshit
It was always funny looking at those two divisions. Oh, it's the best little Clemson
Yeah, well, yeah, and you had that virgin little Virginia Tech run in like the late like 2007 to like 10
And then I went back and I looked and since they've been doing divisions. I think it was something like the ACC
Coastal went like five and 16 in the championship game and one of those wins was Georgia Tech who had it vacated
So they just got the shit kicked out of them every year now
Combine them
It's gonna be sad though because it's always it's always nice to have that one thing you can point to and be like
Hey, we're not the ACC coastal. The uh, the u is back too. Yeah, big. So that's it. I mean
I never really saw the purpose of having those two divisions
Just like I never really understood when when the big 10 did like the legends and leaders
Yeah, it's just I they try to like create rivalries sometimes that don't really exist
Yeah, and it's like if you put these two teams next to each other every year then maybe
Their fan bases will start to hate each other and it doesn't you can't like force that right and let's be very honest
I'm definitely afraid of the big 10 doing the same thing because the big 10 west is the ACC coastal of the big 10
And I don't want that to change so too bad for ACC coastal teams
You have one last year and also I think Virginia Tech's thing ended before that because jam you beat them in Blacksburg in
2010. Well, no, they they won. I think they won 08. Let's see. It was like 21. Oh seven
You know, they won in 10
They won in 07 08 and 10. Oh, they did. Yeah, even though the same year they got beaten by a 1AA school. Yeah
They won the uh, ACC coastal or ACC uh championship. Um, okay. My cool throne is tennis
Wimbledon is back. I'm going to watch at least one game of Wimbledon
I also laughed really hard because someone tweeted at me. They're like, hey Wimbledon's here
Can you guys get a tennis player on? I was like
Okay, dude, we'll have genie bushar back on. Yeah, uh, jakes here
He can talk about it. Yeah, that was actually my hot seat is uh, Novak Djokovic
What he lost a set and people are freaking out. Oh one set. I'm out on Wimbledon. I'm out on Wimbledon. Jake, give me your, um
Power rank top three tennis players in the world right now or ever
right now right now it's uh
rafa
joker
and
Mm-hmm that guy from germany
Medvedev Serena

Yeah, jack socks. I thought medvedev's three serena. It's got I mean, it's gotta be serena
Sam Corry is american. You have no guys. You have no girls in your top three overall
Uh, I like Osaka. Is she gonna play? Wait, didn't she quit? I don't know if she's playing this tournament
Talking tennis uh genie bushard. Yeah, we'll see her at the u.s. Open serena's got no we won't no
You guys want to go inside baseball for a second? Yeah. Yeah, I forgot to bring this up in the previous
Are we still talking tennis?
What is theoretically?
You guys could get all access
Press to a u.s. Open day
Day for a day is it out?
What day is it? Is it any day the last day?
We do we do all we do a lot of sports in the show. We have a guaranteed interview and you guys could bounce around as reporters
But who do we interview?
Anyone that's there. Here's what i'll say to you hank if the u.s. Open is willing to make me a ball boy
I will attend
uh
Well, I will be a ball boy for the u.s. Open be careful with that big cap because they
They have just made bloggers ball boys before. Yeah, just for asking. That's true, but I will uh
I will be a ball boy
I did it. I think you guys doing a video. That would be great my first summer. I was you that's corporate hank talking
No, that's not. I hate that. See that's I honestly don't think that you do want to be a ball
That's not I would just because it would be funny. That's content on the screen and like fuck up
That's that's caring about the listener tank. Oh, I did a day there my first summer
Yeah, I did king of the court in a suit. I ate some food. Yeah. Oh wow
I've seen one of the most memorable videos. Yeah. Um, well, I thought a big cap was hot
You're so hot. Here's what they'll do. They'll say, oh big cat said they want to be a ball boy
So they'll get them out there. There's gonna be a real game
No, no, they'll get you out there for like a training day and they'll be like here
No, here's how you do it and then it'll just be like big cat trains to be a ball. No, I won't do that
No, I'm saying I have to be I have to go from zero to 60
I have to go from not a ball boy. No idea how tennis even works to
ball boy
If they do that, I'm in uh
That's talking tennis. All right, Jake your hot seat. My hot seat was Novak
There's an article Novak Djokovic
Overcomes second set stumble to win wimbled and opener another one said bad day at the office despite winning three sets to one
So there's moving the goalposts on my boy. They're expecting six loves six loves six loves every man
Yeah, my cool throne is fantasy running backs. We have a boxing match between agent peterson and labion bell next month. Whoa
Yeah, does he get to use a tree branch?
Wait, so does this be
Does this mean that labion bells
Contract like didn't because you'd assume he needs the money. Right. He is. I know Adrian Peterson. It's a lot of money
Isn't leaving on bell still in the NFL. I think so
Yeah, what contract is like? Hey, yeah, you can go ahead and
I wait the box waves in january 22nd. Oh, that's right. He's on the box. Yeah
Okay, yeah, so that'll be fun. Yeah, so it's like 2012 all over again
I'm gonna feel like a little dirty watching that it. No, I'm not gonna watch it
I'm like Hank said you're gonna see a highlight and then be like, oh, okay, cool next
Who's let me let me see the next journalist who's broken the code
I think it's it's got to be adrian peterson though if you're betting on this, right?
Like a way way more physical player
It would be funny if leave it on bell box like he runs and like was just didn't throw a punch
For the first like 15 seconds of every round. Yeah, what his left his left his face like super open and
Yeah, his hands inside his strategy is gonna be get into the ring and then
Wait until somebody bigger than you goes and takes the guy out. Yes. Yes. Um, okay

Oh
Okay, we now welcome on a pair of very special guests. It is max verstappen and are we very special?
Yeah, very special very special very there's two of them. Yeah, very very and it was it's Sergio Perez who you just heard
We got to start Sergio, uh, checo or Sergio, which one are we going by checo? Okay, so I read a story
Uh, when someone asked you how you got the nickname and you were like, it's pretty much the most unremarkable story ever
What like you just can you tell us what how you got the nickname checo?
Yeah, basically in Mexico, you know, all the sergos are called checos
So it's not like a nickname I choose or they or people choose on me, you know
It's just automatic. Yeah, it's like in the u.s with richard and dick. Yeah, right exactly
Dick richard. Yeah, exactly. So why could this might be confusing?
But did your parents maybe think about just naming you checo because it's like, you know that if they name you Sergio, you're checo
Yeah, I need to get you my dad's name, you know to
To to make sure you ask him because I don't know what was he thinking
Everyone calls me checo. No one calls me Sergio
If we ran into Sergio Garcia and just right off the bat, we called him checo. Would he be cool with that?
Do you think yeah, he would love it. Okay. I'm gonna file that one away in case the interviewer
Okay, so, um, we're very excited to have you guys on we just to be totally up front
We are uh drive to survive fans and then you know, we'll watch f1
It's also a big fan of it. Yeah
Max, you're such a big fan of it. You just weren't on the last season, huh? Exactly. Yeah
I'm saving all my energy for the next one
You just wanted you wanted to just consume it as a fan. You didn't want to be a participant. Yeah, yeah, exactly
Exactly. I'm just you know paying my monthly subscription to to netflix and uh, yeah, no, it's great
Is there is there anything about that series because it's obviously done wonders here in the united states to increase
Just uh the the fandom of f1 racing and awareness of f1 racing
Is there anything about the series though that you watch and you see how it's edited and you're like man, they
They really don't show it as we experience it. Uh, well, you know, I'm not gonna
I'm not going to be too negative about it now because I mean in the meantime, of course
I've talked to the people who are in charge and who are running the show. So
um, I think we actually came to a good understanding for the future, but um up until now
That's why of course last year. I was not really
Involved. I think there were a few things. Yeah, where I was not really happy with and especially
You know faking rivalries between drivers that for me
Is is uh, is it tough on because of course it did wonders in america, but also I think uh
Sometimes they portray a few drivers
Definitely to how they actually are and then of course the people are new to have one thing
Oh, this guy is a bit of a dick or whatever, right? Which in real life is not
But uh, having said that like I just said before I think for the future we can do a good understanding of
Um, yeah, how we can work together. So yeah, I'm sure in the in the next one. Uh, you will see a little bit more every
Okay, so you the fake rivalries. I get that. Um, I'll just cross off the question. Why do you hate daniel ricardo?
Um, we just won't get into that. Uh, no, we're we're we're big fans of daniel rick. We've had him on the show a bunch
We've also had on your guys. I would you say he's your boss or coach christian horner?
What is that officially? Is he your boss? It's my best friend and my mates. Well, and we uh, yeah
that's what I was gonna ask because, um
Does he ever look at you max and you're like
Dude chill out like you love me a little too much
Not yet
Yeah
He's from south america, you know, so of course, I think that's quite a natural behavior for checkers
So yeah, we do have to calm him down a few times. Yeah check those like wait, are you are you about to try to kiss max?
What's going on here christian?
I was not calming down, you know, because when there are a lot of cameras around and they're like
get too close
Especially in my first my first date with redwood. He was having a choking
So when we had him on he was telling us about his his pre-race routine as the principal
And he said that he always has to find
The perfect toilet to piss in before the before the races and he can always tell if he picks the correct porta potty
And it's going to be a good day. I guess he's been doing pretty good selecting which toilets
He's gonna he's going to choose this week. Is that something the team now carries a personal toilet. So for him, especially
Yeah, it's like kim jong-un when he travels with his own toilet on the train
Exactly
Is there a moment where like before the race he ever tells you guys he's like
Yeah, it was I hit the right hole this morning. You guys are in good shape. I thought it was only one hole anyway in the toilet
Yeah, that's true. Yeah, but he does he let you know like, hey, look, it doesn't matter if the car's fast
I went to the right porta potty. We're good. You know, it's actually the first time I heard that from christian. So
I'm gonna buy a first birthday a toilet the japanese toilet
every other heating
Like, you know having a hit the right trajectory. You have to make sure it hits right
Exactly. Yeah, I love that. We did a bad job starting out here. We didn't ask easy question. Which one of you guys is faster?
Oh, uh, we well, we leave that up to you to decide
Okay, check. I'll decide that one. I'll say check out. I'll say watch max get mad
I never get mad
So I'm I'm I'm literally the calmest person on this earth
I actually read a story about that and it's crazy because obviously, you know, you guys are both very very competitive
You're you're in a sport that is like crazy and adrenaline
I read a story max that like before races you're
Sometimes playing like fifa and just hanging out like is that true that you have that
Calmness to you before you're about to go 200 plus miles an hour around corners
I mean not one hour before the race, but um, let's say
If like the race like a night race or whatever and I only need to leave the hotel in the afternoon
I would wake up of course a bit earlier and sometimes I squeeze in a few games here
Okay
Now in terms of the video game like do you guys use the video game to prep for courses at all?
Or is that is there a simulator that you're able to use that's like better than that?
Yeah, well, I mean we have a whole set of of course back at the factory in in Milton Keynes, uh, which
Is pretty incredible, you know where we set up the car ready before we actually get to the race record
So so we do spend a lot of time on that
Yeah, so I wouldn't I wouldn't call that a video game for me like the video game, especially like on my laptop
Um, I just enjoy like talking to my friends and just having a bit of fun
You know because it's just it's also a nice way of just relaxing, you know outside of of racing
Basically, I was asking if I'm good at the video game. Do you think I could do your job?
Yeah, you will be a world champion
What about you check up before before each race do you find that you have to
Get yourself amped up. Do you like being excited going into it?
Are you in a mode where you're trying to calm yourself down?
No, I'm pretty chilled before the race, you know, sometimes I
I try to sleep as much as possible, you know, because I got three kids at home
I take a good opportunity to make sure I I put the hours, you know, I I like to sleep nine hours
On a Saturday, you know, if we especially we have to get late to the circuit
If it's like a night race or so
Then it works out pretty well because you have plenty of time in the morning
What about pregame meals? Do you have anything in particular you like to eat before a race?
No, depends. It really depends if we go to any time, you know, because normally the races are very early in the day
So you just have breakfast and it's very hard to get any lunch
But I'm always changing maybe some pasta plain pasta to make sure I don't have any bad stomach throughout the race
Yeah, I would imagine has it ever happened where you got in your suit and you're like, uh-oh
I gotta go to the bathroom. This stinks. Yeah, it has happened
He has it's horrible. It's a horrible feeling imagine driving at
300 kilometers and having those feelings. They're not very nice. No, I would imagine I this might be a stupid question
But both you guys obviously, you know live on the edge. You're you're you're going fast all the time
Do you guys ever get like frustrated when you're in an uber and they're going really slow?
Like do you get do you get mad at slow people in general in life?
Well, I don't I don't really
Get upset or whatever when they are slow because at the end of the day they just drive to the speed limit most of the time
Right. Um, it's just when they lose the way or like they're just taking an alternative route
For for no reason, uh, then sometimes well, I'm actually pretty calm
Then I wouldn't immediately say that I would be upset and talk to the driver like, hey, what are you doing?
But inside I would be like like what the hell is going on
Right, right and just like when you're on the highway, like if you're going
70 miles an hour that's slow to you, right? Like that's just that's not fast
Well, yeah, of course it is slow
But I mean we of course also race a lot during the weekend
So actually sometimes to just be driven around and just get from let's say a to b. It's it's not a bad thing
Yeah, that's true. When did you guys first realize that you you really love going fast?
Well, I think when my mom gave birth
You were early in his second trimester
I I always like see when yeah the the other like seeing your guys
Um, like old clips and kart racing and all that stuff when you were kids
That seems like the most fun in the entire world because I remember as a kid whenever I got a chance to drive in like
A go kart it was like the best day ever. So and you got to do that all the time, right?
Well, yeah, I mean to be honest with you, I haven't driven a proper go kart in like five years now
But I mean, I also started driving when I was four years old. So I did that for like 12 13 years
Um, so I think sometimes it's not bad to have a little break from it
But it is let's say easy easy going
It's where you learn all the basics of what you're doing right now and of course a lot less politics involved
So that that is for sure. Very nice. Okay similar question for you check. Oh, uh, you love to golf
I know that like, you know, we'll drive cars, but then when you get in a golf cart for some reason
It's so much fun. You're like, this is sick. This is a golf card. Do you still have that feeling when you get in a golf cart?
Yeah, I do I do okay, especially if they if they if the golf course is a bit bumpy or
You know, it has a blind corners. It can get a good fun. Yeah, because that would suck. Yeah
You know, the last time I went with some mates
We went into a place in in Puerto Vallarta in vidanta, which is really tough
You know, you have some blind corners and sun and they had few drinks and I was chasing them
But it is a corner, you know, so he just went really late into the corner and he rolled over the car
He did a bit of a check house. Wow
He actually rolled the car into my mates. Wow
Geez
By the way, I heard you have really good ball control when you play golf. Uh, did you? Yeah
Yeah, how good are you?
I'm good
What's good because to me if you break a hundred, you're good. How good are we talking? He's gonna turn pro after his phone career
Yeah, what do you golf usually? 18 18
So 18 handicap. Yeah. Yeah, that's pretty good. I like that
It's like asking how good are you like? Yeah, I'm good. I'm good. You don't see that
18 for me, uh, you know with the amount of time I spend playing golf
It's good, you know, because I don't play that much and I'm not practicing enough. So yeah
Once I retired, I want to get down to the below
Into the fives. I think so are you good? No, I broke 130. Yeah last week. So that was pretty big for me. Yeah
I skipped three holes, but I shot 127. I really don't understand what you guys are talking about
Because hitting hundred on a golf course, it's like it's good. It's bad, you know
So max to put it in racing terms if you had a race and like let's say it was an hour and a half
We would do the race in like four hours
Right, okay. That's that's amazing. Yeah, that's pretty impressive. Yeah, it'd be like you guys
Finish you're not crashing or hitting the wall. So that's good. Correct. Yeah, and we're also getting drunk during the race
And then just forgetting how to
Because you're not going that much flat out. So actually you're very good for the environment as well
Also, when when you say we finish the race, that's not exactly right because we skip a bunch of holes
I usually stop around
So um
Something that we always can't grasp our you know minds around is like f1
You guys are teammates, but you're also competing against each other like American sport when you're on your team
That's your team. Is it difficult at times to be like, hey, we're we're a team
But we also are trying to win this race like you guys you really you seem like you have a great relationship
But how is that work day to day? It's just for the cameras
Okay, yeah, you guys are gonna fist fight after this. I like that
But is it difficult like is it is it hard day to day to just be like
We know that we're we're going for the same goal. But at the end of the day, we also want to win
Yeah, but I think it all has to do with respect, isn't it like if you respect each other
You can uh, say to your teammate like you did a better job than me this weekend or whatever
You know in a race and as long you can do that to each other and besides that don't take
Things too personal and still have a good
understanding also not just purely about racing but just in life or as
Like kind of teammates working together to make the team faster as well
I think that's what we have at the moment. And I think that works really well
But it's not always that easy, of course, because you can see when other teams is not always the same
um, but it's very important to find that kind of uh
Relationship together, you know to to always think about how can we make the car faster together because you have to work together
Um, and then of course at the end of the day you both benefit from it
Yeah, what's the most important part? Do you think like being on a team that fosters
That kind of teamwork like having people around you that encourage you to get along or is it mostly on the drivers?
I think it's a bit of both. I mean you need to have the right people around you as well
you know don't um
stimulate the kind of like
The internal fighting if you know what I mean
And I think the team we are in at the moment like there are a lot of good people and yeah
We all get on really well together and I think that is very important
Yeah, who's one unsung hero of red bull racing a guy that doesn't get their name out that much
Um, you know, maybe somebody that kind of flies under the radar a little bit
But it's very very important to you guys doing your job. Definitely not marketing
We can definitely live without them. Yeah, they set you up with these two assholes every day
Yeah, they're sitting they're sitting they're sitting behind us, you know, so we we do have to say this
Yeah
There are so many people involved
That you always have to speak of
Of a great team effort, you know, because there are only a limited amount of people who come to actually to the track
But there's so many people back at the factory who are working and contributing to to this
Great results. We get you know that it's always
Impossible, you know to to tank them enough. Yeah, so um this year. I should have said by the way from the start
I'm actually a Ferrari fan. So, um,
Yeah, yeah, well you guys
I have some caps. Um, I just I basically picked them because
Uh, I wanted a team that I could essentially be like, yeah, look at the history
Even though they're not that good now. It's like, yeah, but we have all these rings. Uh, yeah, that kind of guy
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, the other teams I root for in american sports don't have that. I can't be like it's basically I've I've said
It's like Yankee fans. Yankee fans can be like 27 rings
But how is it different this year against Ferrari versus like last year with Mercedes?
Where it felt obviously the Mercedes rivalry was very heated at the end
How is it different now like shifting it where Ferrari is your main competition?
For this season. Uh, it's it's uh,
Yeah, it's just completely different mentalities as well because of course
One side is that's an english german. The other one is is basically basically italian for most of it
But I think in general for the sport first of all, it's great to see Ferrari back up there
And I think it's good
That you see different kind of teams like coming around and and actually start fighting again for wins and and potentially
A championship
But also I think between the two teams like yeah, we get on really well
Of course, naturally you want to beat each other and and you will always do everything you can to make sure that happens
But like I said, it's the same actually with as what we have as drivers as long as we respect each other
I think that that's the most important. Yeah
Um as far as the f1 race in miami went that seemed like it was an incredible spectacle down there
Like all the celebrities and and everybody that showed up especially before the race
Who is the most famous person you guys met in miami?
I definitely it's gonna be I actually took him to the track, you know, I drove with him with bad bunny
You know him. Yeah bad bunny. Yeah. That's cool
Yes, I mean
He's pretty famous in in america. Yeah, was it is he a big f1 guy?
He's a very bad bunny. Yeah, he's a bad bunny
Is he a big fan of the sport? He likes the sport
Uh, I think he recently started with it. So we actually have his picture on on our car from his album
No, not from him. Nice. I saw you had a space in the cockpit
I
Saw it on my seat. I think tom brady was down there, right tom brady was down at the race. What what other sport?
Yeah, what other sport?
Yeah, what other sport has athletes that you think would translate the best to becoming f1 drivers
Like do you think soccer players as a whole will be good f1 drivers american football golfers?
I think the soccer players are are good
Uh
In in anything, you know, they're very good because they can be like
If they play golf, they're really good at it or the golfers. They can be also very good
Fighters, you know the boxers. Yeah
I mean if if let's say we do it the other way around if the if you would put me in a on a pitch like
I would get to a certain level, but I would never be
Let's say f1 wordy level in terms of
In their sport, right? So football. Yeah, whatever soccer football
Name it basketball. I'm not probably not even tall enough for that. Anyway, so
In general, like you get I guess to a okay-ish level if you work hard for a few years, but
You need to grow up with it. It needs to be a passion as well, right to to become really good
But what if we took you guys and we put you in nascar in the u.s
Like nascar has always been a very popular. That's been our motorsport that we've had
If you guys became nascar drivers, how long until you became dominant p1 p2?
I think we certainly will enjoy it more because we can eat
Yeah, Daniel won. Yeah, you know our mexican won nascar for the first time. So that was pretty big. Yeah
Well, I do raise a bit of let's say nascar on my simulator at home and it's a completely different discipline
So for us to get good at it
Um
It will also take quite a bit of time, you know
It's it's not easy and it's the other way around as well for them, you know to get good in the nascar whatever
It also takes time. You need to really grow up with it. Yeah
Um, all right, so I had what this been awesome and we appreciate you guys coming on. I had one last question
It's the roback question use code take for 20 off your first purchase
We're going to send you guys some q zips and hoodies for coming on the show
RHOback.com use code take for 20 off your first purchase. So my last question is in
American football, which we are that's that's our favorite sport
There's a feeling you have when a pass will be incomplete and you're hoping for a flag right after
We've noticed or at least I've noticed watching f1
There's always like complaints that every team has after a race. Do you guys finish a race and you're like
Maybe we can complain our way to a victory
Because it feels like that that's happened a few times. Is it not not you personally but the team principal?
Well, it depends, you know, sometimes it can be quite obvious. So then there is a chance of
potentially getting a win or whatever but
yeah, um
It can happen it has happened, but uh, I think that's part of every sport like, you know, um
Now also let's say in soccer you got this like vr, right? So it's sometimes you get a penalty or not, uh, you know, yeah
These things happen
Yeah, quite a lot of sports now my dumb brain would be like I would if I were you guys
I would like already be home eating dinner being like maybe maybe maybe it's changed. Maybe I won
Yeah, keep refreshing twitter. Oh, well, I mean, I've you know, I've been on the podium and then, you know, I was offered again
Or yeah, you know, so I I know that feeling. Yeah
Yeah, um, we had one other question coming from one of our guys here. That's actually a big f1 fan
He told us that they just made a rule change about porpoising and I have no idea what porpoising is
But can you tell us his porpo?
Do you do you like to porpoise or are you upset that they made this rule change about porpoise?
We love it. It's so nice. No, so I mean, yeah, you have been watching this year. Yeah. Yes
Yeah, and you see the cars always. Oh, not every car, but quite a few cars on the straight
They're going especially that beautiful gray car. Uh
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, um, basically with these new regulations, um, because we are generating the dunk was also from from more from the floor
Um, it's basically what what happens is that the car of course because of downfall sucks to the floor
But then because of a certain stall or whatever what happens under the floor
It goes up and down like it keeps sucking but then of course it stalls it goes up
Then it tries to suck down again
And some cars or some teams have that more under control than others
And when that happens at 300 it's really not like it's really well can be painful for some if it's really aggressive
and of course
Especially one team has been moaning about it a lot. So that's why I think now they will try to investigate or try to understand
How we can limit these kind of things
um, so yeah, this weekend will be the first try to see
Uh, how we can limit it for the drivers in terms of comfort
Uh, it will be quite interesting to see if it actually
Changes up a bit. Uh, the performance between cars. You you don't know yet
Sounds like all right. So yeah, we don't we're not going to name the team
But it sounds like they've been complaining a lot. Well, it's a silver car. So yeah, like a german guy with a british driver
Kind of hypothetical
Well, we appreciate you guys so much and uh, good luck this weekend and uh, hopefully we get to talk to you again
This has been a lot of fun. Yeah, thank you guys

Yes, that was incredible. Yeah, that's the voice of kate
Uh, the very very funny kate our favorite marine kate, which that's just a fact. It's true. You are our favorite marine
Yeah, there's no other marine at barstool. So not that I know anybody else matters anyway
Um, so kate is here to do the mount rushmore of america. You say i'm excited. You say yes
Oh, wait real quick before we start. Oh, you brought gifts. No, it gets so hot in here
Let me take out my baseball and my concealed carry permit
I'm sharing some things
It's a little toasty
Wait a minute. These say pardon my take billy football. I must put his on
It's my mistake
Hold on. We're not saying his name on the show though. Oh, here we go big gulp. Oh, fuck. Yeah. Is that mountain dew doing it?
Oh, you know it. Oh got you guys a little something. Okay. Oh, hold on the lights in here is so bright
Okay, us marine uh veteran hat, which is pretty sick
I just got you each a little where's that? Oh apple pie. It's apple pie. It's apple pie
I'm actually gonna play. I hope this doesn't skew the results of what people pick. I just
A couple little things I brought in before we start. What's this? Where's this from?
Uh, I don't know. Some people would say I had to cut the lid off because it was from a french place
And it's actually a pear tart, but
Interesting. Well, isn't a pear just a french apple? It truly is. Uh, yes. Yeah. Okay. All right. So ready
That was a good intro. We're gonna do Mount Rushmore of america because july 4th is coming up. Um
What does america mean to you kate?
Boy, what does what doesn't it mean to me? Uh
Immediately my first thoughts were of tobacco. Yeah crush in tobacco fire like holding being drunk holding fireworks in your hand
Really getting to the edge of it all. Yeah
Yeah, danger being drunk with a firework in your hand while the sun is beating down on you in a tank top
That's america hot dogs in the morning firing a gun into a lake. I also. Yeah, that's big
I also feel like fourth of july is a big time like
Uh, let's cook like
40 hot dogs and 30 hamburgers for like four people
Did you know over a fun little fact for you over the fourth of july just on the fourth of july alone
Americans eat enough hot dogs to stretch from
Washington dc to la five times. They went back. Is that true? Yeah. Well, I
Know that is definitely on line. So that's really totally whispered. It's yeah. Yeah, as you walk by. Yeah, that's I mean, I'm impressed by us
But yeah, I always end up on on fourth of july where it's like, whoops
Maybe I shouldn't have cooked 700 hot dogs. Yeah
I went to a fourth of july marine wedding in one of my marine buddies
It was in their backyard in the polka nose and everybody's cars got stuck in the mud on the driveway there
And then everybody's playing cornhole with their pistols just like in their back cargo pockets and stuff
And then you know, this the fireworks with the hands and they're like letting little kids do it and I was like, this is what it's about
Yes, this is what it's all about. I am kind of glad though that I think that this is the year that tobacco does make a comeback
I hope so because we were saying yesterday like jule is done. Yeah jule is over party
Yeah, it's time to bring back actual cigarettes in america. I couldn't agree more
Okay, so it's gonna be great fourth of july. It is like one of the best holidays just because the holidays that are
There's no religion attached is just like get drunk and eat a shitload. Thanksgiving and fourth of july are that right?
No, and plus the weather this is the weather. I feel like for a lot of people. This is really when the beach
Season starts especially in the northeast. It's still a little too chilly in june, but it like really kicks off the true heart of summer
Yes, yeah, agreed. Now. Are you are you one of those people that reminds everyone like hey
Right as everyone's reaching like their peak drunkenness just so you guys know
Everyone that signed a declaration of independence got killed so show some respect for them today
That's true. And I like to remind everyone that it is about veterans at the end of the day
As is every holiday every holiday. Yeah, we do it. It's all circles back. Veterans day memorial day labor day
Still not Halloween. Harder day. Harder day. Yeah, for sure
Martin Luther King Day Christmas
Easter
Everything everything everything's about the veterans. Just remember that shit
Every football game that's played every baseball game. Yeah, the NFL draft actually
Is that's a whole day that celebrates veterans? I would agree. I think we should have more. Yeah, you think it's not enough
No, it's never enough. Thanks. You enough. I haven't heard you guys dedicate your show to us lately. Uh today's episode or 500th episode actually
Dedicate him to the troops. So thank you to the troops. Oh, you're welcome guys
Huge huge huge. All right. Do you want to go first?
You can decide the order actually Kate. I got a question real quick. If somebody like
Says thank you for your service. Have you ever been like you're welcome?
I I sometimes oh sure that no, I think it kills me inside a lot. It's very nice when people say it
But just like right now I'm getting awkward. That's what I do. I'm like, oh, yeah
Because it's something like you're welcome. Yeah, that's great for you. Yeah, I was thinking about you in particular
I would just go up and be like I would just say like, oh, no, thanks. That's sir
You know, it's a crazy response. Kyle carpenter the Medal of Honor recipient who's been here
He did the pizza mre pizza review at Dave
He jumped on our grenade that was thrown on the roof to save his buddies and he survived
But he was I don't know if you remember him. He came through here
Um his mom and little brothers were waiting outside and they got all the call her daddy merge
They were like cracking up. Uh, but this is back in the Gluckluck days
Anyways, um his response when people say thank you for your service. He looks them right in the eyes
And he's got like a glass. He's like you were you're worth it
If I said that to people if I said that to people people would be like Kate's drinking dumb bitch juice
Doesn't come the same coming from me
But when he says it you like get a tear in your eye you're like, oh my god
I um, I would have given my my seat up to a veteran on my trip back from Austin
I was sitting in like the last row the very last row of the plane and said no one wanted that so I wasn't able to
But for the record, I was going to give it up in case they had asked me for it. So. Oh, yeah
Yeah, that's the thought that counts. Yeah, you're welcome. You're worth it. I wouldn't either
Yeah, no, no, do you go do you go do you board planes fat first? No
And I the veteran parking spaces like I couldn't I would rather park in the back of the lot
You know board planes first. That's the only reason to go in the army
It true it is and I thought it's so it's when your active duty, but afterwards they don't care about you
Oh, really? I thought it was anyone. I've heard him say veterans soon
No, I'm you know what you're doing you're mixing up because at like baseball games
They'll say
If there are any active duty or veterans in the crowd, please stand up so we can clap for you
But I think on planes is active duty. I think they do do retired as well. You should just do it
I'm gonna start doing it. Yeah, who's gonna stop me. What are they gonna say?
I got dog tags. Yeah, what are they like? Oh, no, oh you think because I'm a woman. I didn't serve
Yeah, I would actually be right now
Yeah, if somebody were to like question your service right as you're getting on then you could play the sex card on a real
Phone out immediately. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. What do you say? Oh, yeah. Um, all right. Do you want to go first?
Sure. Oh, you got cards. All right. So which direction do you want to go after you?
You okay, it's me and pft combined and then it's these guys combined. Okay, so there's three teams. Okay, okay
platoons platoons
This is just and it's all incumbents american things, right? Just america america. It's just open on and it is possible. Okay
Uh
Sucking on chili dog outside the tasty freeze. Yeah. Okay. There we go. What a weird opening line that is
Sucking on a chili dog
You just suck on chili dog remember that? Yeah, not plural. Yeah
All sharing one sucking on the chili dogs. All right. So
Our first pick was a little different. It was um, it was just football
Oh
It was our one one football is is the quintessential america. That's and it is an american
Yeah, it's just holy american sport. It is. It is. We call it american football. Yeah, well, not us
It's just football. Yeah, but if you can think of like one, what's the most american thing?
Out there. It's sunday football. I would say smoking a cigarette in the stadium
While you're watching football. No, we can't do that anymore. Thanks to obama. I like these very hyper specific mount rush
Yeah, and your dad is hammered sitting next to you and he's talking about
Don't let him agnab. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah still
All right football. Good answer. Yeah. All right. Go ahead. Hey team hank
What what you
I just want to quit mount rush more hank has made it miserable every time we look at him
He just gives us those biggest scouts. It's his glances. Yeah, it's not even the words that he says
You don't think you get a glance there. You know, there's a big-time glance you like tilted your head
It was like it was a chore to be here. That was a huge grace. Are you serious? You don't think you glanced
No, you got you got lost where we were going if you're glad. Yeah, no, I saw that look you were like
It's not my pick you idiot. Your glance could talk you would say buh buh buh buh. Yeah
No big head at the nail on the head. Yeah, he thought it wasn't his pick. All right, and I didn't I wasn't ready
two picks
We're gonna go with
The second amendment
Okay, how many guns do you own?
You just it doesn't matter. You just respect the right to do it. Yeah, it's america
Yeah, I think you like the idea that you could go out and buy a gun right you don't have to own one
But you just know that you can't necessarily like the idea, but it just it is what it is. Yeah, it is
Those arms I'd say zero
Would you believe this guy says he's gonna get a six pack
Oh
I don't I do not believe that. Can you see some cool? Yes. So speaking of guns
Look what we got. This is like this is a very american thing right here. Please let it be a gun
Please don't be a gun. I want a gun. It's a gun. Oh, yeah, but watch
It's actually a knife. It's a knife gun. Yeah
How fucking cool is that if I get robbed in new york city? I hope it's with that. Yeah
The reverse would be cooler though. Oh, yeah. Yeah a knife that would be a knife that you
That looks like a knife is really worthless. It's just actually gets you in the worst amount of like pain
Yeah, it's an illegal thing that looks like a more illegal thing right and if someone sees the
Thing they think it's supposed to be they'll shoot you. Yes. This is exactly what you should never bring to any sort of a fight
Correct a knife gun. It's awesome though and also check this out. This is cool, too
This is the actual gun. Yeah, this is uh, there's a bullet that comes with it
And you want to guess what the bullet is a lighter a lighter. Yeah, I hope it's a lighter. No, it's also a knife
Oh, oh my god. It's a cute little baby knife. Oh my god. Isn't it a dorbs? Who sent this to you? I want to give that to my son
It's perfect size
That's awesome
Fourth of july. Here's your bullet knife. Wow. Yeah, we got to start selling those in the store. Yeah
Okay, hank
team hank
Uh, we're gonna go with
John Sina announcing osama bin long
Yep, god damn it. That's a great fucking pick. Yeah, baba. He's been
Captured and compromised to the fullest fullest extent. Actually, we shouldn't joke around about that the man's dad. Yeah, right
heaven would you
Osama wet jumper
um
That sounds like you might be kind of into the team thing now
That's a great pick from baba. Would you have thought of that? It was a great pick
Exactly. You don't know what i'm capable of though
I think we do. I think we know exactly. I think we're we know more than anyone else every year. We actually keep honest stats
You guys don't try and muddy the waters. All right, uh, my next one our next one
Hank
Oh, I had that last one too. So i'll do that one after that one. You're the last one you sent to me
Yeah, I had that as well. Okay. So yeah, that will be our third third pick
I'm gonna go with the the second one on my list. Do you agree with that? Yes? Yes. Okay light beer
Yes, light beer america was like, you know what beer is good
I wish there was slightly less taste that you could drink 10 times as many of them except for course light
Great slight beer of all time. Yeah, so but it is especially course light. Um, not in stern blue
But light beer is the only like I don't know any other country that specializes in making light beer
There's really none every every other country's like we like more flavor
Us were like, no, we just want to get drunker. Right, right. We would like to get fucked up right. I want to drink
I want to drink 20 of them. Yeah. Yeah, I remember my younger days
Of when we would do like kegs and eggs and wake up or whatever like miller light and stuff like that
It was like it's basically
It's hydration. You're like you're you're doing something good for yourself
It's also funny to just think about like
Like from a far like a case of beer like a 30 rack a beer is just a lot of beer
But it's not enough too
It's just a lot of anything to drink right, but it's like that's what like i'm like the fact that we buy beer in
30 packs and don't even flinch is very funny. Oh, yeah, like we need 30 of these my
I had an x that like what drew me to him is that in on like a casual saturday
He could crush a 30 pack and I was like, that's a man. Yeah, that's a man. That's america. That's I guess
If you're good at drinking beer, that's that's an asset right there. Yeah, that's a man
You want to get your liver disease? See, I think so
He was sitting out in the smoke bit was in the military and he'd be smoking cigarettes
And you'd just be sitting there with the whole case just right next to him not even in a cooler and I was like
Yes, please. Yes
Beer breath. Yes
Delicious, you know you could you could never do that with any other liquid besides beer
Can you imagine just sitting down like what are you going to do on sunday? Oh, I'm going to drink 30 sprites. Yeah
Well frank
Yeah, I think frank could could put down a 12 pack of sprites. He probably could yeah
I actually knew a guy that used to he used to carry around a 12 pack of diet coke
And he would drink a full 12 pack every single day boss that guy mike francessa, you know
He was like five six and three hundred ten pounds. Yeah, but it was diet. Yeah, it was diet. Yeah, he was healthy
We're going to get back to mount rushmore season with kate
But before we do I want to remind you guys that the barstool sports store has everything you need this summer
From swim trunks to cornhole sets
You can shop pmt and the rest of barstool summer items at store.barstoolssports.com

Get some pmt merch get some barstool sports store merch. Uh, you have two picks, kate
Oh, okay. Um, I'm very excited. This is more of like a scene
Cold beer on a Friday night in your jeans that fit just right and the radios on yeah
You know chicken fried. Yeah. Yeah, it's just something about it. I'm more of uh, uh
Fuck I don't even know the lyrics to the apathy song that everyone do their tiktoks with apathy's on a late day night
But that's a good pick. That's a very good pick something about it. Yeah. Yeah
That song actually respects the troops. Yeah halfway through that song
They break down into like a little snare march and they ask everyone in the crowd to sing along
Back in the day when I was drunk at the bars, that would give me the chills. Yeah, I'd be like everybody better shut the fuck up right now
Yes, let this part play. Yes, and then yeah
Give his salute to me. Yeah. All right. Great one. Great pick. You got another one. Oof
You know, I don't think anyone's gonna take your picks. There's something about
There's something about the lakes of minnesota
The hills of tennessee
Across the plains of texas from sea to shining sea
Oh from detroit down to houston from new york to la
The flag still stands for freedom and you can't take that away
Do do do do and I'm proud to be an american
Where at least I know I'm free and I won't forget the men and the women
To me and I'd love to stand up next to you and thin her still today
Because there ain't no doubt. I love this land. Love this land. God bless the usa
Hey, can you fit all that on that? Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we'll make tiny fun. Okay. Yeah, I mean
It's gonna have a real hard time with this one, but it's gonna be very funny to see
So I once had to fold, you know, a giant flag at a pro tennis match as lee greenwood sang
Uh, while and he's saying it was a saxophonist. Oh
Uh and lee greenwood and we all had to keep straight faces and that was very hard
I mean, is there a guy that's made more like squeezed out of one more out of one song than lee greenwood
By the way a callback to a former mount rushmore
Uh with joey and pat straight things that are sneaky gay. I think saxophone playing saxophone is a straight thing that's sneaky more straight
Oh, yeah, it's bill clinton. Yeah. Yeah bill clinton saxophone is just like we're about to have sex
No, it's like that dude can eat box. Yeah, right. Oh if you can tickle a reed
Dude, we'll put we'll put a cigar anywhere. Yes, absolutely. Yeah, yeah, literally
We're game. Um, okay. Our next pick is uh,
One that I think everyone will appreciate also a sponsor of ours
Uh, Hooters Hooters is as american as it gets go eat and look at some big old tits
Delightfully tacky that unrefined. Yes. Yes. There is america a good business plan
No matter what the the like
event is or what
type of like business that you're looking at stars just like add boobs to it

I'm down. Yes, like hot sauce. We've got billy michael's hot sauce right here
If there was uh, just boobs on the hot sauce. I would buy that. Yes
And it's also like you walk in what other restaurant can you walk into with the pre written joke of being like
I'll have I'll have some breasts. I'll some chicken breasts
Hold the chicken and it works every time every time. They I'm sure they love that. I'm a thai man myself. Yeah
We I I keep like circling back to military stuff
But there was this
I'm being weird
There was this a haircutting place off camp Pendleton where that's what they did because you have to get a haircut every week
If you're a guy
So there was a ton of little haircut place and this place was their thing was all the hairdressers
Had huge tits and so like the guys would go and they'd be like, oh, it's just the best
I want to sit in there and their tits are rubbing against you while you're getting your haircut
And like the place absolutely
That's how you could get guys to go to the doctor more often
Yeah, this is a dentist office, but everyone's got a giant rack in there Hooters combined with the dentist office
Your arm would get brushed your arm would get brushed at least once. Yeah, it's thrilling. It's okay that my gums are bleeding

It's like, all right, we're doing something right
Peter King
And then for our final pick we will go with refusing to use the metric system. Yeah, good choice
That's a strong one
Wow
Yeah, that's good. That is a great one. Just the rest of the world uses it. It makes
Such perfect sense. It's based on tens. Everything is tens or hundreds and we're like, uh-uh
We're doing 12 inches. Yeah, and like then you go somewhere and it's like it's 30 30 degrees. I go. It's cold
Right. No, it's actually 100. Yeah, the other one where Celsius zero is freezing, right?
Why did we do that? I couldn't tell you
Zero is freezing and a hundred is boiling. Yeah, it makes perfect sense perfect sense
And we're just like, nope. Let's go 32 is freezing. Yeah
Well for us, it's like zero just means it's really fucking cold. Yeah, right and 100 means it's really fucking hot out
I like that. I do like that though. I do like that. Yeah
Kilometers get out of here. No no no chance. Give me miles. Yeah

You know what we're gonna go with Mount Rushmore. Liberia. Liberia's Hank. Wow
Uh, Myanmar, Liberia and the u.s. Where did Hank pull that one out of? Yeah, what the fuck Hank? You're on fire
I was just the look that I gave you the glance that I gave you was because I couldn't believe that Hank

Thomas jefferson ben franklin alexander hamilton the greatest presidents that we've had no javk
Into rock javk is on there part of his heads on there. Yeah jimmy carter
But jimmy carter jimmy carter is he actually brings everyone together in this country because I think everyone agrees like jimmy carter great guy
Probably shouldn't have been president. He should run again. Is he still alive? Yeah, he's alive. Yeah, that's gonna be sad when he dies
Yeah, we'll be sad. Yeah, he's getting smaller and smaller. He's just gonna shrink until like he's bite size until that's it

Oh
Someone tweeted me something very interesting that I thought might be a fun thing to do
Um, hey, have you ever gotten the number correct?
Nope
Jake, how many numbers do we have left that haven't been picked?
Six be original. What if all what if hank doesn't get it?
If all the numbers are picked before hank gets one right hanks, you have to get a cat
And what about you guys? No, see i'm not i'm down. I mean, it's gonna take a long time for them all to be picked
We've all gotten the numbers. So what do you mean?
And what if I get it right beforehand? You have to get it. You're good. No, you're good. See i'm down
Like i've always said i'm down to do a cow bet there has to be
Jake you're your nerd your stats guy. It's gonna be what for one reason is there for me to risk getting a cat if there's no reward
For there's a reward is for the listeners
I feel like there's a higher chance of you losing that duke zion bet for the cat than this one because there's only there's six left
It's six left. You just have to get one right before all six get picked you have to be so they have the exact same odds of being picked
No, why what do you mean? That's I
Like I will say this every single time you guys bring up cat that's give me something on the other side and i'll throw it out
Do you want to get a cat?
If hank doesn't do it just take your name off as least
I could fine. Well, it might not
The bet still might be going it still probably will be going no because now i'm in a fucking
I just realized I wed myself to my enemy because hank could just stop paying rent and then they'll come after me
That's true. Is that over me now hank if you don't you know, you're no longer welcome at my brazy beach house
Also, damn
If you don't if you don't do this bet do the cat bet we have 89 out right now. All right last one
26 has 26 been picked. No, so we just all take those not picked numbers. Yeah, why not 26?
27
27 fine. I'll do it. I'm just gonna pick one of the numbers every time
What yeah, you could do that. Yeah, sure. You aren't so you're deal
Until you get to the last one. No, but like that's the thing. I'm not doing this for no reason
I need I need I need to win something. I will think about it. I'm gonna risk a cat like it's just like it's
It's a very dumb thing to do like I realized when I almost had to get a cat
And I didn't get anything for not getting a cat that it was a really dumb thing to do
What if you get a dog
I don't have time for an animal. I mean come on
So it's 6 26 27 29 51 78. All right 26 62 55
All right, I'll go 27
